I had an amazing experience at the fruit farm today! Not only did I get to taste a wide variety of delicious fruits, but I also got to take a nice round trip around the farm. Our rider Brendan and his colleague Andrew were incredibly helpful and kind-hearted, making the experience even better. he farm is surrounded by beautiful greenery and the staff’s friendliness is beyond words. The entire farm and staff is so disability friendly. Thank you for the wonderful experience.
Fantastic experience. Wide variety of fruits. The fruits are as natural as they come. Very juicy and full of flavour. Reasonable take-home price. Super friendly and nice tour guides. Family-friendly environment. I will take my family there again for sure.
Was a great experience to pick your own fruits and eat them on the spot. you get to bring them with $6/kg. Guide Andrew was friendly and share with us how to pick them.
I loved the fruit bottling. The pear was scrumptious! The pear was hard to cut because the knife was made out of plastic! We have to wait 4 weeks to eat them! It was so much fun.
When we went to Rayner’s Orchard we did lots of activities. My favourite was when we cut up the pears and put the syrup on top of them. First we got fresh pears and put them on our chopping board. Next we cleaned the pears by taking the skin off and chopping the ends off . After that we chopped the pears in half, and chopped them in half again. We then cut them into little chunks. I needed help with that job! Finally we put them in a jar and put syrup on top. The syrup was made out of sugar and water. We poured the syrup in the jar and it was done! Now I have to wait for 4 weeks until I can taste them.
At the orchard we tried 3 different types of fruit. The first fruit we tried was called a Pepino. It had a nice taste. The second one we tried was my favourite. It was called a feijoa. They were juicy, fresh, yummy and delightful to eat. The last fruit was the tamarillos which I didn’t really enjoy as much. Most of the fruit was delicious. Many people enjoyed the tamarillo but not me.
On the bus ride I felt nervous. My tummy had butterflies swirling around like chaos. I said to myself, “Where are we”? Then we were at Lilydale and then on Schoolhouse road. It took one hour and 40 minutes to get there. In the window I saw some beautiful trees and a magnificent view. I really wanted to get out. I wished it was around the corner from school. I wish I could go every day after school. I think the whole school should go. It was amazing. It was a happy place to be.
